River East Lyn

The East Lyn is formed by the confluence of Oare Water and Badgworthy water below Malmsmead, it then flows for several miles, past Brendon and makes confluence with Hoar Oak Water at Watersmeet, where Watersmeet House is located. Continuing on, the river is squeezed between a narrow gorge section, upon exit follows on for another 2.5 miles (4 kilometres) until the river meets with the West Lyn River and flows into the Bristol Channel at Lynmouth.
